Rutgers is my school, and I always wanted to finish. I showed that every summer while I was playing and came back and took a class. When I was volunteering coaching here, the registration got screwed up. I take the blame for that. I showed there was an intent on finishing, but once you get into coaching and you have a young family and you’re in the NBA, it’s hard. The NBA isn’t a résumé league.”

Jordan was a point guard for the Scarlet Knights from 1973 and 1977 and has spoken quite warmly of the place in the past. He is now the captain of the ship and we will see where he can take the Scarlet Knights.
